Well that is more like it - three stunning displays, just when I was wondering if I had accidentally hit the Cafe button.

Craig - Simply stunning. :hiclp: :hiclp: :hiclp: :hiclp: Who made the large pink vase at the right rear corner please?

Sue - WOW! WOW! WOW ! IOW! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: However, I do notice some items made from mud in the last picture - TUT! TUT! By the way who is the maker of the large vase in the middle of the third picture, please?

I bamle all snileplg eorrrs on the Cpomuter Kyes. They confuse my fingers !!!

Hi M, just wondered what the piece in the centre top shelf of your cabinet was...? just that there was one recently for sale which was fairly similar that I nearly bid on, not 100% sure if its the same item or not. :sun:

My mud items have glass on them. I like the odd bit of mud work, Ross.

The large vase in the middle (and the tall one to the left) of the third pic are by Phil Atrill. He studied with Bob Crookes.

The middle one is a "Distortion" vase (The tall one at the side is a "Horizon" Bottle.).I think it's a fairly early "Distortion" vase. (given the price I paid and the prices they are now, and that I'd never seen one quite as complex before.)I've found a link:

But these newer ones don't seem to have the opaque whitish contour lines inside the casing as well as the thin band spiralling around the outside. The yellow and purply ones might - it's hard to tell from the pics.Better pic of mine in this thread.http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,30275.0.html

Well, I wouldn't call it a sig, even though it might be described as one - it's a scratched word - possibly done quickly by the artist or someone working with them as it were, or possibly done by the artist who couldn't use a diamond point engraver, or possibly done by the first owner lol, or possibly even done as the name of the place of an exhibition where it might have taken part (I do have a vase signed by the artist that also has the name of the exhibition place where it was to be exhibited, so perhaps that is also a possibility)- it's one of those kind of 'sigs'

and it's not who I thought it might be as an outside guess given the 'sig', although that matters not as I just fell in love with the vase :girlcheer:m
